City fans support Mancini

2.07.2012

Manchester City fans began a campaign in support of the team manager Roberto Mancini. The fans of City are categorical that they would stand behind their mentor whether the team won the Premier League or not. City currently occupies the second place in the ranking, trailing with five points from city rivals United.

City fans organized an online petition to express their support to the Italian. So far the petition is signed by over 1000 people.

"There is huge pressure on Mancini mainly from the London press. We decided to show our support for him even if we finish on the second place. If Mancini leave at the end of the season it won't be some form of criticism by the owners or board. We want to honor the work that he had done so far. We would like to fulfill his contract to the end, and why not to be extended for one year, " commented the organizers of the petition.
